  1. 2015 k/9: 9.28 2016 k/9: 7.74 2015 bb/9: 1.89 2016 bb/9: 2.51 has he figured out all the secrets to generating soft contact? or have the babip gods blessed him with a fun month to mask the fact that he's no longer the guy he was last season, let alone the guy he was the second half of last season?
  2. one time i talked to len as he was walking to his car after a game and he was super nice to me even though i am terrible
  3. he's gotta be doublegood for the both of em
  4. 7 IP 0 ER 4 H 11 Ks 1 BB http://i.imgur.com/EzkanIy.gif I got irrationally upset (shocker, right?) when Lackey didn't come out for the 8th for this reason alone. Anyway, I'll take your poison nacho recipe, tree. pm me your mailing address
  5. in celebration (?) of lackey's first start against the cardinals as a cub, everyone guess what his line will be tonight. closest to the pin gets a special prize courtesy of da tree.
  6. the suffering looks good on the pitcher's face
  7. all the articles i can find about this are from january and say that mlb made a deal with fox sports to set this up and planned to have a deal with comcast and whoever else by opening day. then no updates and now no deal. super lame.
  8. wasn't this supposed to get sorted out by opening day? how can i still not watch the cubs on mlb.tv in illinois when i have a cable package that carries the games? I WANT THE GAMES ON MY PHONE I'M A BUSY MAN
  9. did ANYONE on the team know the game would end on a run scored? ross was trying to gun down celebrating tomas
  10. all i said was that i thought this was an actual bad thing for the team and i was surprised no one else thought it mattered beyond making the team less fun. i didn't start a new fatalism thread and scream about 3-159. that was the bit. this is how i honestly feel, and i don't think it's an outlandish opinion.
  11. i think people are underrating how bad this is for the cubs if he really is out for the season. i do not have any faith in baez or soler as an everyday player. soler is additionally a black hole defensively, probably even worse than schwarber. if schwarber is gone, i'm probably taking three or four wins off my mental projection for the cubs. that could easily be the difference between the division and a wild card. it also significantly weakens our lineup should we make the playoffs. thank god fowler came back.
  12. i love the after-the-fact explanation that part of the reason it's bad to put an awkward guy in the outfield isn't just that he'll cost you runs defensively but also that he'll suicide/take out your other players with his bumbliness. this is obviously nonsense and just isn't a thing anyone rational would expect to happen. if this were such a regular occurrence, omc would have a video in his collection of adam dunn spiking himself so hard that his foot comes off at the ankle and he bleeds out.
  13. let's start a pool for how many starts we have to give lackey before moving him to the bullpen i call 5
  14. http://i.imgur.com/dUMZDCF.gif thanks for giving up rockets to jean horsefeathering segura and making schwarber die
  15. yeah, if he had finished that last dork off quickly, i could see running him out for one more with a fighting chance to stay under 100. at 89 and with his bogus spring training, let's just cut him off now.
  16. comparables Baez: Brandon_Wood http://i.imgur.com/0MWH9MV.gif is that batman in the jar of urine
  17. ;( i gave it a look but just didn't see enough hooks/twists and turns to figure out how to do it.
  18. vote carefully
  19. yeah, that honestly strikes me as pretty weird. dempster i suppose i understand, but i would have guessed wood could have whatever gig of this nature he wanted. why would he choose this one?
  20. someone post the dog in the fire
